This course will provide students with an introduction to mindfulness and teach them mindfulness tools they can use to better self-regulate their emotional states and manage the stress-reaction cycle so many college students find themselves in.
Mindfulness can be brought to any activity. In this course, students will practice different mindfulness techniques through various types of physical activity such as walking meditation, yoga, and time in nature, to name a few. Part lecture, part activity class, students will acquire skills that aid in reducing stress caused by many of life's major stressors: time, people, sleep, work/academics, roles, food, pain, change, fear, panic and anxiety. |
